The upcycling journey: From used plastic shells to new chairs

Transforming discarded plastic into premium furniture components with precision and purpose.

Among our customers

Step 1: Collecting used plastic shells

Our sustainable journey begins with your valuable contribution. We collect used plastic shells from our customers, a crucial first step in the upcycling process. Once destined for disposal, these shells are now on their way to a new life, transported to our warehouse to be transformed

Step 2: Sorting and cleaning

Upon arrival, each shell is carefully sorted and thoroughly cleaned. This important stage ensures that only the best quality materials are selected for recycling, creating the basis for premium upcycled products. It's a process where precision meets responsibility.

Step 3: Grinding plastic

The old is transformed into new and the shells are ground down into finer, manageable pieces. This crucial step is where the old chairs begin their metamorphosis, breaking down the past to pave the way for a sustainable future.

Step 4: Recycling and material preparation

Then our specialized recycling process takes over, where the painted plastic is carefully prepared in the extrusion line to become part of innovative, sustainable products. This is where technology and environmental awareness come together to create a greener future.

Step 5: Manufacturing new chairs

With a commitment to sustainability, this recycled material becomes the cornerstone of our new chair designs. Every piece of recycled plastic finds its place in the production of eco-friendly, stylish and durable chairs that carry the legacy of their predecessors.

Step 6: Quality check and finishing touches

Quality is paramount on our journey. Every newly manufactured chair undergoes strict quality checks to ensure they not only meet, but exceed our high standards. This final finish is a testament to our dedication to excellence and sustainability.

Step 7: Ready to sell

After transformation, our upcycled chairs are now ready for their new home. They stand as a symbol of sustainable innovation and are ready to delight customers while making a positive contribution to the environment. That's the beauty of upcycling - old becomes new, waste becomes wonder.
